Introduction

The project, Hotel Management System is a web-based application that allows

the hotel manager to handle all hotel activities online. Interactive GUI and the
ability to manage various hotel bookings and rooms make this system very
flexible and convenient. The hotel manager is a very busy person and does not
have the time to sit and manage the entire activities manually on paper. This
application gives him the power and flexibility to manage the entire system
from a single online system. Hotel management project provides room booking,
staff management and other necessary hotel management features. The system
allows the manager to post available rooms in the system. Customers can view
and book room online. Admin has the power of either approving or
disapproving the customer’s booking request. Other hotel services can also be
viewed by the customers and can book them too. The system is hence useful for
both customers and managers to portable manage the hotel activities.
Hotel Management System is a software system where the management of
entire hotel is computerized. The hotel management system is designed using
VB.net as the rich GUI for front end and SQL Server as the secured back-end
database. In this project the details are maintained like customer details,
reservation details, booking details and billing details the reservation process of
reserving rooms for the customers, cancelling the reserved rooms, booking the
rooms vacating the rooms, the restaurant management, billing process, etc. all
are computerized and the management is done without any difficulty The
reports can be viewed completely and the head of the management daily or
weekly or monthly can review it. For company auditing it will be more useful.
This Proposed System will be interactive, faster and user-friendly for the end
users. Using the hotel management system, the following activities can be
performed.
 Abstract

This project examines the aspect of the hospitality industry which is Hotel
management. In the 21st century the use of the internet, computers and other
electronic devices have made handling different jobs and aspects of
management very easy. This project is the design and implementation of an
electronic hotel management system that provides proper management of data
and transactions in a centralized and organized manner and also provides a user
friendly interface with which the user can interact easily with the just little or
elementary knowledge of operating computers. This project is designed to
create a platform that allows both the user and administrator to keep track of
transactions like room reservations, room booking, financial administration of
the hotel, staff record keeping, online reservation and other day to day activities
involved in the running and management of a hotel. The implementation is
based on the requirements for a hotel management system. The project work is
divided into five major categories which are; Front Desk, Accommodation,
Catering, Finance & Account and Personnel Staff Record (Human resource
management). This project accomplished the task of building a system that
ensures accurate record maintenance which was done through proper
identification of customers and the proper designation of user functions with
most of the processes being done automatically. An electronic hotel
management information system is required to assist management of data in the
hospitality industry and also to make the entire hotel management process
easier. The project was designed with the use of Microsoft visual Studio which
is an integrated development environment made by Microsoft. It can be used to
develop console and graphical user interface applications along with windows
form application websites. The database system was created using Microsoft
SQL server (MSSQL).
